New Navy blazer! .

Ya, I considered more flashy buttons but opted for the more conservative gray. In the sunlight, there are many different colors and hues in those grayish buttons. Brown was tempting!

On another note, I'm wearing a BB slim fit shirt. But, it billows out--muffin like--and it shows up on the coat silhouette. I have a couple Ledbury slim fit shirts, and they fit great and look so much cleaner with the coat. But they are so expensive. Wondering if I should try the BB ultra slim fit?

May i suggest getting the sides and the back of the shirt darted or taken in? I suggest this because you exercise. I find the BB ESF to be too restricting in the chest if you have any muscle that protrudes at all. If you are a 15 neck (like me) the p2p measurement of some BNWT BB ESF shirts I sold was about 19 inches. It will likely be uncomfortable for you. They will still be cheaper than your ledbury shirts (SF price + 10-15 for tailoring)

Just a thought, others can def. share their experiences.
